We need a new sofa. We’ve been using ones free-cycled to us from friends for several years, but somehow they just seem to dissolve before our eyes. The most recent one, a lovely green traditional sofa, is now held up with a make-shift 2×4 leg (how exactly did they snap the four screws on the old leg right in half?) and one side flops down a little farther than the other end (which is actually good, because the springs are now grinding into a sheet of plywood nailed to the bottom of the frame, rather than the floor underneath!)
I’ve been looking at the Ektorp sofas at Ikea, because they are apparently tested and come with a guarantee. While I was Googling to see if this guarantee is really worth anything, I found these videos by Ikea at You Tube. (Ikea has now removed these videos.)
They made me laugh and they made the LittlePages, who have no real experience with commercials, roll on the floor and squeal in delight.
I thought I might pass on a little of this laughter. This one was a favorite, as was the one titled How to Make Everything Fit into a Drawer. (This one has also been removed.)
